Thank goodness it all turned out well and the road was big enough! I don’t know if I would have been able to continue driving after that, I would have had a melt down too!
Appriciation for the life we have and the loved ones in our lives is something we all need to be reminded of, but NOT like that!

Jesus took the wheel. Incredible! So glad it turned out okay. I would have been mad at the Toyota too. Nothing rankles me more than cars speeding down the freeway, swerving in and out, passing cars. You know they really don’t make much further progress, but they sure put a lot of lives in danger. The joys of four-lane freeways.

I liked the ending of this the best – you lived and are living. Amen.

I seriously don’t know whether to tell you to fly next time or to stay home. Yikes!! I am so glad that you are okay and that you can see the lesson/positive side of it. But wow, honey, this was certainly a crazy road-trip!!

Glad you are safely home!

Holy crap. I’ve had 2 close calls like that in my life, and I was driving both times, so I completely understand the whole mental break down as soon as you stop the car. So glad you guys are okay. I’m betting this is a trip you won’t soon forget!

Idiots like that on the road are so frustrating! I mean, I know we all can be idiots sometimes, but it’s bad when they put other people’s lives at risk. Sounds like you maneuvered that vehicle like James Bond in his Ferrari. I don’t know how you did it! I think I’m gonna start calling you JB for short!

Glad you made it home safely and that you had a great trip. Now, back to real life. 😉

There is no better co-pilot than God! I am so thankful the Big Man saved you guys….that had to be so incredibly scary. I tell you it is nothing like seeing your life flash before your eyes for a life changing perspective. Yes, indeed you are blessed. I am so glad you guys had a wonderful vacation and you lived to tell the tale! BTW, the pictures are gorgeous….I almost forgot to say that, after hearing about that almost headon, I was so shocked I lost my train of thought. I am so grateful things turned out well.

In reply to Mindee@ourfrontdoor.

You know…now that I think about it…I think I might have peed my pants a bit. And I was pretty mad at the Toyota driver for awhile, too. 😉

In reply to Lori @ In Pursuit of Martha Points. Yes, terrifying it was. And I learned that I, too, HATE situations like that. :) Mindy
